James
Rodriguez took further steps closer to a Real Madrid return on
Wednesday as the Colombian joined his team-mates for a full training
session.
The 23-year-old, signed from Monaco for £63million
last summer, has been out with a fractured metatarsal since February and
first returned to the training pitch earlier this month.
After
taking part in some small-sided football tennis games on Tuesday,
Rodriguez joined Wednesday's full session with the players left in
Madrid for the two-week international break.
Carlo Ancelotti's
team held a moment of silence ahead of the training session in memory of
the victims of the French Alps plane crash before Rodriguez and Co were
put through their paces.
Ancelotti will be hoping Rodriguez is
available for Madrid's next La Liga fixture against Granada on April 5
as the Italian looks for a reaction from his team following the 2-1
defeat against Barcelona last Sunday.
Madrid's El Clasico defeat
at the Nou Camp, their third defeat in their last four outings in all
competitions, left them four points behind leaders Barca in second place
and heaped pressure onto Ancelotti's team.
